EFFECT ON TAXATION.
-. --'|'- q, ~ = Z. - - -. >
How the County Bonds Will
Effect Your Taxes.

The valuation of the countyllsst year
was s., 018,252. The annual interest on
the $25,000 county bonds will be
$l,25O. AT the above valuationiit will
be q tax sof SIX -tenths Of one mill on a
dollar, 6 cents ION a valuation of 500,
er6O~cents on an assessed valuation of
1000. Figure ON that and see how
small will be the annual cost of your
share of the interest on the county
bonds. For every 81 900 you are as
.sessed you will. pay tax of 60 cents.
these figures aresat the last assessed
valuation Of thecounty. 1t is certain
that the improvements will greatly in
crease the valuation of allrreal estate
tor a long distance from the water,
power, thus Siading a. large amount to
this assessed valuation of the county.
'Of course the larger she assessed valu-'
alton the smaller will be the rate of
taxation necessary torraise THE 81 $50
interest. tits very likely that the I'M
provementsw will Gauss snch an aacrease
In valuation that the assessment in
1883 will reach $3,000,0OO. At such
syaluation the rate necessary to raise
the interest would beabout four-tenths
of'anill, or 40 cents on $1,000. Not
only would the tax rate for the bond
interest grow less, but so wvnld the
rate for all county taxes, as is always
the case with county whose assessed
valuation. is large.
Property that is situated along dis
lance from Little Falls, and receives
the least benefit from the Improve
menU would have a much smaller pro.
portion of all county expenses to bear
than at present, and his decrease
would more than overbalance the tax
/ for county bond interest. So If your
land is not increased, in value you will
berrelieyed' Of considerable part Of
the county tax you now pay. But a
large part of the county will be- direct;
~ and largely increased in value and
owners Of this property will certainly
not feel the slight; tax imposed by the
county bonds that provided for the inn
provcments which caused the increase.
In no light that it can be viewed is
there any,reason to believe that the
county bonds can prove burden to
any taxpayer. Giving the S25 900 by
county for the dam is making an in
syestment,which will more stl,an"repav
the seosti in Increased taxable valua-
ton
Carry the taxation figures into the
not distant future, say<six years ahead,
when the sresuIt will be many saw
mills, factories, -four mills and other
manufacturers at this place, and rail-
.roads from the south, east and west
traversixg the county to reach Little.
Falls, aud then consider how much
the benefits 10 be realized owe rbalance
the trining cost.
